Calgary has struggled on special teams, scoring four times in 50
power-play attempts and killing just 72 percent (36-of-50) of
its shorthanded situations.

Dallas opened a four-game homestand with its second consecutive
defeat, a 7-2 loss to the Los Angeles Kings on Thursday. Mike
Modano and Jere Lehtinen scored power-play goals for the Stars.

Netminder Marty Turco needs one victory for 100 in his career.
However, he has surrendered eight goals in his last two starts
and was pulled in the first period against the Kings after
yielding three goals on seven shots.

In their last encounter on October 13, Philippe Boucher scored
in overtime and Modano had three assists as the Stars recorded a
3-2 victory over the Flames.
